A free local business directory for the Hwy 16 corridor, powered by AI
Central BC Directory exists to connect local businesses with the people who live and work in our communities. We believe finding a good plumber, a great restaurant, or a trusted mechanic shouldn't require endless scrolling through outdated search results or hunting through social media.
We've built a curated, AI-powered directory that covers Prince George, Vanderhoof, Quesnel, Burns Lake, Fort St. James, McBride, Valemount, and Mackenzie — the communities that make Central British Columbia great.
Instead of a search bar that returns a list of links, our AI assistant understands what you're asking. Type "best pizza in Prince George" or "plumber near Vanderhoof" and get natural-language answers drawn from our full directory — no keyword guessing required.
The AI is built on Pickaxe and trained on our complete business listings, so it can answer questions, make recommendations, and point you to exactly the right business.
Central BC Directory is built and maintained by Gentoolink Web Services, a local web development and automation studio. We manage the directory, curate listings, and continuously improve the site.
